Field trip to a college

Lets go we going to the field trip. We get on the bus everybody says omg we going to some boring college.

His speech was about that time when he got shot and how he got to forgive the people, he also told a story of a relative that died the day after thanksgiving for a diamond chain. His speech inspired me to forgive anybody and to listen to God. Then we went to a workshop were we had to find the correct people than can help us out with our case.

9/11 Museum Visit

         On Thursday, July 24 2014 we went to New York City to the "9/11 Museum"and it was an good learning experience. Even though it was sad for most people because some of their family members died in the buildings. When I was there I saw some people crying touching their family member names and I saw one name that had a flower.
It's crazy that humans can do this and harm other people, even worse kill them. As we entered the museum we saw the bad memories of that day when thousands of people died. When we went on a floor that showed pictures of those whom were missing and died.  

911 museum

Today we talked how last Thursday we  went to 911 museum it was a honor to go such a place because my family talk about how me my twin are like the twin towers  one tries to be taller than the other like how the antenna is the short building its only tall because of its antenna.

9/11 Musemum Visit

On Thursday we the male mentoring program went to the 9/11 memorial museum for a nice class trip. The museum was amazing from the outside, pretty flowers, and two massive pools to remember the twin towers. While we were getting ready to go inside we were checked to make sure we wasn't going to do anything intently. As we were walking thought the halls the workers offered to shows a quickie movie clip or slide show to informs us more about the what happen 9/11. After that we walked around the museum and saw a lot of crazy artifacts to remember what happen. Then we went into a room that had a list of everyone that had died on the day of 9/11 so we pay our respects

9/11 museum visit

what i learned today was about 9/11 and the events that occur their the twin towers in new york were stroke. and one plain went in 470 miles per hours and around 3:00 pm the south tower went down. and then at 5:00pm the north tower went down nearly 3,000 people died during this event. people were stroke at this and their were sad moments over 10,000 volunteered to clean up the mess and to this very day some remains were not found and people are still like i cant believe what i witnessed some cant even go back to work or look out a window because of 9/11.

9/11

The 9/11 museum was sad, seeing over a thousand names of people who died in one day. i have learned that they tried to take out our political, militia, and economic power. For me 9/11 is still a good day because its my birthday #turnup. I feel that any person who kills their self to kill others don't value their life, and that's sad.

9/11

What i saw at the 9/11 memorial was moments from 9/11 that i never knew or saw. it was sad to see different events from 9/11 and to see all these people die in front of my face. i loved the presentations at the museum i find that it was excellent. the videos at the museum was great as well. it was very very detailed. i am very proud and very lucky to be at the museum. In conclusion it was a great experience at the museum and hopefully i go there again

9/11 Memorial

At the 9/11 museum, I had a feeling of depression  and sadness. I had this feeling because seeing the  burned and melted firetrucks, badges, peoples phones, and the firefighters helmets. They were severely burned and demolished due to the jet fuel. My thoughts about the 9/11 museum are it was very informative because it shows the different  things that went on throughout that day with the four different flights.

911 Memorial

A couple days ago the CTS MMN went to new york city to see the 911 Memorial Museum to learn more knowledge about the worst day in american history, September 11, 2001. I learned a lot of new things about who the terriost where, why they hated americans, and the amount of lifes that was lost on that day. It is a day that scared americans and had a horrible  effect on everyone.

do when they talk to you.

when the cops approach.

my compass

today the fact that a man was killed by a cop just proves that there are still bad cops out there or bias cops that believe that men don't  change and will attack even faster with the slightest movement. this should make people realize that you shouldn't make the mistake and repeat your bad pass.

my compass

After that a special guess came in and we talked about our goals and tier 1-2-3 words and how that its important to know those kind of words, especially if your trying to apply for a career or job.

my compass

S.T.E.M stands for Science, Technology, Enginering, and Math. Mr. Vincent talked to us about how every thing we do in life if STEM. When we talk thats science because of the way our throat vibrates and the vibrates go to our ear drums and lets us hear what they said. Technology is always around because technology is what ever you can use to help assist you or somebody else in life. Phones, Computers, Movies, Tablets, and etc are all different forms of Technology. Even a pencil is technology.
Enginering is one of the most important things in this world because it helps us with transportation and so many other things. Math is just all around us in Science, Technology, and Enginering because you have to know what to use and how to angle the right parts for stuff.

Choices You Make

Today Mr.Adissa and Mr.Williamson stopped in and talked about how you have many choices in life and you can do whatever you put your mind to. There are many jobs you can do and have if you make your options wide. Also Mr.Adams and Mr.Depps talked about having a bank account and how it can help you later in life with saving money. Mr.Goode talked about how you or others may go through tragedies and they don't tell anybody and they try to hide it.

Today Mr. Williamson talked about making good and bad decisions. There's a choice for everything. For example, letting your pride get the best of you or making the best decision. Mr. Williamson told a story about a father and the son and slaves owners were calling the father out of his name. So the father had a choice, either be a man and fight and die. Or be a father and walk away and take care of his son.

Today the mentors were talking about how you have a good amount of choices in life.All you gotta do is put your mind to it. There is a WHOLE LOT of jobs in the world and what ever you wanna do, it has to be wisely. Mr. F Goode talked about how people always going through some struggle in life and how they overcome it without asking/telling people to help.Honestly i enjoyed this lesson today because it helped me stopped being afraid of speaking up.

 
  What I learned today was very interesting because I learned that every one has a talent in some way and in some form. I also learned to do something you love and not to do something you dislike because if you do something you love then you will have a positive attitude and if you do a job you dislike then your attitude would be negative.

  
  Although we didn't read today I was taught a lot of different things for example: We talked about girlfriend's and the difference between marrying them and living with them and just going out with them. I also learned that liking a girl means you have to like them for the right reasons,You cant just like a girl because shes pretty or because she got all the goods, you have to actually tell use the personal things you like in that girl because if you cant then you technically don't love that girl.

   
Last we learned what are the different types of banking accounts some are SAVING ACCOUNTS, PERSONAL ACCOUNT, CHECKING ACCOUNT and many more.

The Choices You Make

                                                                      What I Heard 

                                                          

What we were talking about was how to present yourself in a good way to people. We were also talking about how you don't talk about current situation cause it's embarrassing. The last thing we were talking about was how to save money in a bank so you can have a better future.

July 10, 2014: Choices, Bank accounts, ect

On July 10, 2014, the male mentoring program was talking about how we can make choices in everyday life. I learned that you shouldn't just find a job that you want, you should find a job that has two things, something that you love to do and a job that pays you a good amount of money. We also talked about bank accounts and why we should get them in a younger age. I thought that I should get a bank account when I get a job.

Choices You Make

•  WHAT I HEARD ?

   This morning we had some mentors to talk to us about how to present our self in when you are talking to somebody or when you try to get a job. Mr.Adissa was talking to us about being a leader than a follow. He say that everybody have a gift and use well.

A Gift

I learned that everybody has there own talent that and is born with and if u do not nurture it you will lose your skill and forget that you have such a good skill. That applied to me because my talent is that i can play piano and i have great battle strategy  for anything it just comes naturally but when i stopped playing games that needs that kind of talent and army programs almost lost a great gift. That why i believe what my mentors were saying when they say not to let your talent go.

personal bank account

Today talked about personal bank accounts and images like how see us  and how the choices we make affect me,myself and the people around like  I can either be a known man or some unknown person.What the Men in the male mentoring program aspired me to do what I want like become musician a world known. All I would really need is experience and money to save when I retire.  

Choices You Make

  What I learned? I learned about personal bank accounts and  savings accounts. Well today we had a few teachers come and talk to us about life. Mr.Williamson talked about us making decisions he talked about how we gonna have more manhood instead of childhood. He also said that we should think before we do stuff. Also we had a conversation about how we should start a account now to start saving up money for adult hood and probably even college.

Choices

Today we talked about how you should make right choices in the dicision you choose to make through out your entire life time. One thing we talked about in the right choices you make is like when you have a Personal Bank Account. It's important to make the right choices when you put a lot of money in your account or onto a debit card because as your young your going to want to purchase some new Lebrons, or some Hollister Clothes and your going to want to buy all that good stuff, but your going to have to know how to control and save up for the future. We also talked about how when you make the right choices it shows how you show; present your self to others. For example, like when your looking for a job you have a choice to either dress the RIGHT way or the WRONG if you really want that job. 

personal bank account

today we talked about saving money and having a bank account. and how to save and be responsible with the money you have. i have a bank account and I'm just trying to save some money for something i want. today we also talked about making decisions and that the decisions  you make can determine your future. your actions have a consequence and it could either be good or bad its all up to you.

Choice's you make

                                                      Choice's You Make




When I get out of High school  I'm gonna go to Princton College or Montclair  University. I'm gonna go there for 4-5 year's or so. After that I'm going to join the army and get promoted to officer because of my degree's. After I retire, I'll start writing movie's and plays till I'm old. 

Personal Bank Acounts

Today we talked about personal bank accounts and why we as young men should save money so when we  get older we can live off of our savings when we retire.

Blueprint for Succes Day 4

Today Mr. Williamson talked about making good and bad decisions. He said that everything is a choice. For example if someone ask if you want to fight, its your choice to say yes or no. The choices you make can effect your future. The choices you make as a boy can direct your path into manhood.  Also he stated that everyone is born with a gift, some people may have different gifts, but everyone has a gift, and its your choice to use that gift, and to help your future or to just forget about it.

choice you make

today's lesson was based on choices and how you make them like how Lebron James plays basketball that is a choice to play that sport he doesn't have to play he has his own sneaker brand just as he have a choice to play ball i have a choice to do what i please i can play sports be a doctor or what ever its my choice.

Choices You Make

What I Read?

a set of linguistic items that form mutually exclusive choices in particular syntactic roles. Another topic we talked about what you need to go where you want to go later in life and also about the New Slaves.

What I Did?
         I shared what I think I need to improve on to go where I wanna go later in life.

What I Learned?
         There are many steps to being what you wanna be later in life.  

What We Discussed
Today we discussed how this economy is the new slaves. It may be in a different way but it doesn't matter. We are slaves to the system. For example, air Jordan sneakers, we buy them over and over again. So technically they are taking charge and taking our money.

Blueprints to Success

What I learned today was that 60% of black people are in prison and that 20% are not in the prison system. I also learned that i have a lot to learn before i go to the navy, I need to pick the college im going to, and i need to decide if im doing for the money or just to serve my country. I would like to make alot of money so i can take care of my family such as my Mother, siblings, nephews, and aunts and uncles. i think it would be best if i join the a reserves before i join the Navy.

What i learned from Mr.Adams and the rest of the speakers  such as Mr.Hunter, Mr.Depps, and Mrs.Tazwell, was that going to college is the best choice for EVERYONE!! , and managing ur money is also important




In my spare time i usually skate
